MODIS Collection 6 shortwave-derived cloud phase classification algorithm and comparisons with CALIOP
Cloud thermodynamic phase (ice, liquid, undetermined) classification is an important first step for cloud retrievals from passive sensors such as MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer). Because ice and liquid phase clouds have very different scattering and absorbing properties, an inc...
